KVM & OpenVZ Virtualization And Cloud Computing With Proxmox VE

"With Proxmox VE, you can even create a cluster of
virtualization hosts and create/control virtual machines on remote
hosts from the control panel. Proxmox VE also supports live
migration of virtual machines from one host to the other. This
guide shows how you can use Proxmox VE to control KVM and OpenVZ
virtual machines and how to create a small computing cloud with it.

"Proxmox VE is an x86_64 distribution, so you cannot install it
on an i386 system. Also, if you want to use KVM, your CPU must
support hardware virtualization (Intel VT or AMD-V) - this is not
needed if you ust want to use OpenVZ.

"In this tutorial I will create a small cluster of two machines,
the Proxmox master (server1.example.com with the IP 192.168.0.100)
and a slave (server2.example.com, IP: 192.168.0.101) so that I can
demonstrate the live migration feature and also the creation and
management of virtual machines on remote hosts through Proxmox VE.
Of course, it is perfectly fine to run Proxmox VE on just one
host."
